  1. Hot Club de Paris are playing some of the JOA shows down south
  2. You're not wrong. And that is no coincidence, let me tell you....
  3. Obviously a fucking gadgie.
  4. It was not designed specifically as a Dundee- based forum but that is largely what it is; although Edinburgh, Glasgow and other Scottish gigs frequently get promoted upon't as well.
  5. Its no the busiest of forums but tis home! A greater degree of North- East forum link- up would be a hugely logical step in my opinion, also.
  6. Sunset Squad are the best melodic and metally hardcore band in Scotland; fact!
  7. Typical "Spirited comeback without quite the cutting edge to fully get back into the game after going down...." behaviour from United tonight, although we were excellent in the second half. Why did Levein start in a 4-5-1? If we'd gone 4-4-2 and taken it to them from the start we'd have had an excellent chance of winning the game. Oh well.
  8. I'd be keen to blame MYSPACE for this!
  9. Have you thought about buying a valve amplifier? That, with your Marshall 1960 cab, would probably sound better than the valvestate through a Hughes and Kettner..... Just an idea, and depending on the head obviously! A tele with EMGs? Sounds mad, got a picture?! Whats the clean like on it also? Teles are usually magic clean, EMGs are usually well too loud and flat to be good clean, so it's an interesting combination, never seen/heard it before....
  10. I've decided just to keep the gear for now, found a way that the cab can be transported in my car with only minor modification to both car and cab. p.s. But just as a matter of course; shipping to Bristol would be the only option I guess. That'd cost an extra 68 pounds, according to the parcelforce website, for 48 hr delivery, fully guaranteed and insured.
  11. I'm hating that midget like, and thats not all....
  12. Christ, what a difference decent recordings make eh?! These tracks sound about a hundred times better than the ones you had up before. I'm gonna fly in the face of the trend prevailing on this thread and say I think the recordings are excellent given the amount of time you knocked them out in; clear, every element clean and crisp, big chunky guitar tone..... All in all, good job and well done boys!
  13. Bit rich of Severin to claim he's "bored" of the SPL isn't it? Not like he's done it all, won everything he could win and is now looking down on everyone else. Not even like he's much better than most of the other players in the league! Bizarre. If Lee Wilkie turned round and said he was bored of the SPL I'd be the same, before anyone starts.
  14. I've just realised I've never actually posted on this thread; probably due to fear given the amazing collections some of you have! But my gear is as follows: Guitars Jackson USA SL2H Soloist in Yellow Gold Pearl (Now discontinued finish- basically canary yellow, near enough) with Dimarzio Tone Zone and PAF Pro pickups in place of stock Duncans. Fender Vintage Hot Rod '57 Strat (USA) in Candy Apple Red Amplification Mesa Boogie Solo 50 Single Rectifier Head Mesa Boogie Rectifier 4x12 Slanted Cabinet Laney LC15 Practice Amp (for in the house) Native Instruments Guitar Rig (brilliant for recording/ practicing in the house) Pedals Korg DT-10 Pedal Tuner TC Electronics Vintage Compressor TC Electronics Vintage Overdrive Electro Harmonix Small Clone Chorus TC Electronic Vintage Delay Electro Harmonix Holy Grail Reverb edit- I've got a Line 6 POD v2 as well, which is good for teaching and practice, but Guitar Rig is better for recording. A lot better. Recording M Audio Delta 44 Soundcard PC Cubase SX3 Ableton Live 7 Tannoy Reveal passive monitor speakers and Samson Servo- 170 amplifier. "DJing" Laptop Numark Total Control Interface Numark DJ I/O Interface Sennheiser Headphones. Cue/ Traktor software
  15. I'm gonna guess no-one else was at Tannadice on Saturday, but I want a partial refund on my season ticket after watching that game! Pitiful! Anyone else who was there would know what I mean...... Oh well, at least there is only potentially exciting games ahead of us now!
  16. Paul Gilbert played a pink Ibanez in his early glorious days, and that's not what he'll be remembered for. Gambale played a yellow one at the time of "The thunder from down under" and it's unlikely that in future, guitar enthusiasts are gonna talk to each other in the terms of "Frank Gambale; he was that guy with the yellow guitar wasn't he?". Let's agree to disagree: Original RG550- Good "shredders" guitar. Of this there can be no debate. At the end of the day it is the music produced with the instrument that is important, not the colour of it, nor the image that colour conveys or has influence upon.
  17. If you want a blue Ibanez, why don't you sell the yellow guitar and buy one? Loads of the RG models they have out just now come in blue or shades thereof, and a used one would be easy to come by as almost every RG they did a couple years ago was a blueish colour of some description. A yellow RG is an item that'd be cherished and loved by someone, not ruined in ANOTHER boring blue/ black/ grey/ purple wash.
  18. Does look absolutely brilliant. Sacha Baron Cohen; hero.
